Galaxy S27 Pro: Great Looks, Lesser Specs?
11 Oct
Summary
- Galaxy S27 Pro camera specs lag behind Ultra model.
- S27 Pro and Ultra feature redesigned, larger camera islands.
- Galaxy S27 series expected to see price increases next year.
New case leaks offer a glimpse into the Samsung Galaxy S27 series design, slated for release next year. The standard Galaxy S27 and S27 Plus will reportedly maintain the S26's vertical triple-camera layout. In contrast, the Galaxy S27 Ultra and the new Galaxy S27 Pro are set to receive a significant design overhaul with larger, iPhone-like camera islands on their rear.
Further details suggest the Galaxy S27 Pro will make compromises compared to the S27 Ultra. It will not include an S Pen or Samsung's Privacy Display feature. Notably, the Pro model is expected to feature a 10 MP 3x telephoto lens, a downgrade from the S27 Ultra's anticipated 50 MP 5x telephoto lens, and potentially lacking the 3x telephoto found on previous Ultra models.
Consumers can also expect price increases across the Galaxy S27 lineup. Samsung cites ongoing memory crises and reduced profit margins as reasons for these hikes. This comes as the company scales back flagship production, a move that may leave the Galaxy S26 Ultra a more appealing option for some buyers looking for value next year.
